Priority fixes

  1. [title_readability] Simplify the ornate font to a cleaner serif or sans-serif that maintains elegance but preserves letterform clarity at thumbnail scale, or add a subtle outline/shadow to the current text
  2. [composition] Strengthen the character silhouette as primary focal point by increasing its scale or contrast relative to the mansion, reducing visual competition at SMALL and TINY sizes
  3. [uniqueness_polish] Add a distinctive signature visual element or symbol (beyond crosses) that reinforces the séance/spiritual detective theme and becomes iconic for brand recognition

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Explain how the séance mechanic works as gameplay, not just atmosphere—e.g., 'Use séance sessions to extract memories or hidden truths from suspects' or similar concrete interaction.
  2. [uniqueness] Replace 'from the creators of The Darkside Detective' with a specific mechanical or narrative differentiator—e.g., 'Unlike traditional detective games, every NPC has a hidden agenda that changes their behavior on All Hallow's Eve' or similar.
  3. [feature_communication] Add one sentence describing the visual feedback or UI for the journal/evidence system—help players understand how they track deductions and build cases.
  4. [tone_match] Soften the final corporate language ('Brought to you by...') to match the letter-format voice, or move technical info to a separate section to preserve immersion.
